Introduction to Flood Management

Flood management is a crucial aspect of disaster mitigation that involves planning, controlling, and

responding to flood-related events.

Floods occur due to heavy rainfall, river overflow, storm surges, and inadequate drainage systems.

Effective flood management aims to reduce damage to life, property, and infrastructure while

ensuring a sustainable and resilient environment.

Strategies include structural and non-structural measures, such as levees, reservoirs, zoning laws,

and early warning systems.

Understanding the causes and consequences of floods is the first step toward effective flood

management.
